To the Editor:

I consider myself fortunate to have been in public service for much of my career, and even further blessed with exceptional supervisors who took me under their wings to advance my knowledge.

Renee Cole has been one of those to recognize the abilities in others and work with them to achieve a common goal. She has exceptional values and professional ethics which demonstrate her interest in helping the residents of our county.

The treasurer’s office is making positive changes on a regular basis under Renee’s guidance. She has unified us to achieve success on behalf of all residents of St. Lawrence County.

Renee leads by example and makes many sacrifices of her own personal time. She is dedicated to our county, trustworthy in her decisions and making improvements happen.

It is important to keep our team together because positive change is happening now and with Renee’s guidance it will continue to carry us towards a strong future for our county.

I respectfully ask that you vote for Renee Cole to be St. Lawrence County’s treasurer and keep our county’s finance stable, consistent and fiscally responsible.

Ray C. Barney
